BRIEF Facilitation notes

How to run it.

When to use it

Use Public Consultation Events when a project affects a wide group of stakeholders who should have a chance to share their views. An organised forum for dialogue builds legitimacy and surfaces concerns before decisions are finalised.

Use it when

A decision has broad public or community impact.
Being seen to listen openly matters as much as the input itself.
You want to surface concerns early, in the open, rather than later.

Not the right tool when

You need depth from specific individuals. Use Stakeholder Interviews.
You want structured, comparable data. Use Online Surveys.
